First Song You Loved Meme--now with navel gazing!

Wow there are scary things happening all over the world all at once right now. And I'm removed enough from all of them that I can focus on a meme that jlh tagged me with:

What's the first song you truly remember loving? (Don't worry if it's a little embarrassing; you were just a kid!) Then tag as many friends as you like to do the meme as well!Hard ( Read more... )

memes, life

Ah, I had the single of Monster Mash. "Whatever happened to the Transylvanian twist?" I felt sooo sophisticated for getting the joke!

Heh. You were sophisticated!

Man, I don't have any older siblings, so I never had the musical education/trial-by-fire that people with siblings do. Sadly, my list is very innocuous!

I don't remember too much of that but when my sister lived at home I remember being aware of songs she liked if she played them a lot. I remember finding the Cat Stevens song "Moonshadow" funny because of the line about losing his teeth if he had no mouth.

Mine was probably the novelty song "Snoopy VS. the Red Baron by the Royal Guardsmen." Yes, it was about the Peanuts character. :)

I love that song! I think I have it on my iPod. Merry Christmas, my friend!

What about using Pandora to see if another song may be That Song I Don't Know The Name Of Now?

I hadn't even thought of that! And have never tried Pandora--but I'm not sure the information I have could really help me with it.

Your answer (whether it's Hotel California or Sympathy for the Devil) is actually pretty cool. I shudder to think what my first song might have been (I do know my first casettes were Madonna, Michael Jackson and for some reasons the New Jack City ost-yes, my poor mother had no idea what she was buying me).

A friend of mine's first album was The Rocky Horror Show, and she spent much of primary school loudly singing "Toucha-toucha-touch me". The mental image is hilariously inappropriate.

LOL! I can remember singing that Rocky Horror song pretty young, but old enough that I got what it was about. I can imagine how it might just be funny if you're six!
